Chances are your atomic Casio needs to be charged, the battery that is. Simply wear the watch outside in the sunlight.

Why doesnt my accutime watch turn on even though it's fully charged?

It could be at the wrong setting for reserve power. Some have no indicator. If yours has one set it for the highest reserve because if it's set a low reserve it will just stop even after it's fully charged. Then there could be a bigger problem in the watch. Try to handwind it for 40-50 crown rotations and lay the watch down. This will make the mainspring full of power reserve.
Keep record of what elapsed hour the watch stops. If it's less than the published power reserve for that movement, there could be a problem with the movement itself.

Hello there.

As you can see in the picture, it takes some time to charge the watch up 100%. If you are charging the watch indoors, then it will take 126 hours. The best thing to do would be leave it in sunlight for up to 6hours and the charge should come back fine.

Flashing charge

I couldn't find your model on thier web site but this range appears to have solar panels to charge the battery. Place your watch in bright sunlight or under a lamp (not a hot one) to charge the battery.

If this fails, consult your nearst dealer.

Welcome to Fixya,

With a rubber wristband and rugged style, the watch is meant for outdoor enthusiasts and athletes. The WR165 can be found online, in some sporting supply stores and in certain department or general home stores. Setting the Armitron WR165 only takes a few steps to perform properly.

Press one more time to stop timing. Press the top button on the left-hand side of the watch to reset the stopwatch to zero and the bottom button on the left-hand side of the watch to return to time mode.


6 - Press the bottom button on the left-hand side of the watch twice to set the alarm. Press the top button on the left-hand side of the watch until the hours flash on the display. Press the bottom button on the left-hand side of the watch until the alarm number flashes. Press the top button on the right-hand side of the watch to choose Alarm Time 1 or Alarm Time 2. Push the bottom button on the left-hand side of the watch again until the hours flash. Push the top button on the right-hand side of the watch to choose the alarm hour, followed by the bottom button on the left-hand side of the watch to change to minutes. Press the top button on the right-hand side of the watch to advance the alarm minutes. Press the top button on the left-hand side of the watch to set the alarm time and the bottom button on the left-hand side of the watch to return to time mode.

Blank screen

if this is the same as my watch, it's solar powered and when it gets TOO LOW< it will blank out and begin to charge .  Stick it in direct sunlight for a day if you can.  You can also stick it under a regualr lamp, but it will never get fully charged, but it should be enough to operate at least.  The battery meter is the top middle dial on the face.
